Vouchers - Thank you


Well people again Thank you very much indeed. The vouchers you so kindly sent me following my Op, I have finaly spent. I do hoppe you like what I choose, I ummed and arred for weeks well months really.

But for the last 6 weeks I have tried to put a great deal of thought into what to use the vouchers for, that you would think worthwhile.
And I finaly decided....excellent quality garden tools.......everytime I use them I will be thinking of you all and what fantastic people you all are.They are they safely stored away in the brick shed......and I have used my "Head Gardener" holder for the garden show to hang them on ..... I hope you all approve.

I LOVE THEM

So I choose, Spear & Jackson traditional tools; mirror polished stainless steel head for rust resistance and minimal soil adhesion, one-piece hardwood shaft, split to form a wishbone handle; weatherproofed hardwood shaft for greater durabilty....can you tell I am HAPPY They have a 10 year guarantee, and being beautiful wood will be so kind to my hands, and the right weight for me. PERFECTION.


THANK YOU ALL

All together....






And again....

Top view including the hanger...




So I have a Border Fork; Border Spade; Long handled fork, shovel & three pronged cultivator.

Hope you all approve. Thanks everyone.

Re: Vouchers - Thank you


They are something I have always "lusted after" and have always envied people having good quality tools. But never brought them myself.......these are now officially my lifetime gardening friends.
THANK YOU ALL .....more than words can ever say.

My next purchase will be a bottle of linseed oil to wipe the wood down with start and end of season. ......I am so excited I could SHOUT.

Just been out to the shed to check they are okay, before locking them up. Have explained to Sal today the tools are as important as her beloved Kong.....and deserve to be guarded as such....
